RE: [xsl] simple conditional looping

["Keyur K" <kkeyur@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

Mukul, Chris and Andrew thank you very much for prompt help. I implemented 
recursive template and it works fine.

Andrew, I am using msxsl processor, is there any work-around for it similar 
to Saxon?
p.s. portability is important.

Thanks & Regards,
Keyur
